1. Choose a scsi id from 1 to 6. Your internal HD is most likely 0. Make sure your internal HD is highlighted in the Startup Disk control panel. 2. get SCSIProbe. Connect everything, but leave the external power off. Boot up normally. Power on the external. Run SCSIProbe. It will probably detect both drives. 3. Hit the Mount button in SCSIProbe. Your Mac will probably bomb, indicating the driver on the external is not compatible with the SE. This could also cause the sad mac you see. 4. For ordinary disk drives you can fix this by reformatting *on the target mac*, but the "disk array" I don't know. Use the SE. Boot with external power off as above. Turn on external power. Run your disk formatting software. -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
